Learners will compare different energy outputs in circuits, explain the role of conductors and insulators in safety, identify energy transformations in real-world devices, and design their own energy transformation system.
demonstrate that electrical energy in complete circuits can be transformed into motion, light, sound, or thermal energy and identify the requirements for a functioning electrical circuit; and
